Jarod is a Pretender-a genius whose exceptional intelligence
allows him to assume various identities at will, be it doctor, test pilot or
lawyer. Taken from his parents at an early age, Jarod was brought up in the
Centre, a think-tank facility where he believed his computer-like mind was being
used to benefit mankind. But when he learned the simulations he solved were
being sold to the highest-bidder no matter what their intent, Jarod escaped. Now
on the run, Jarod embarks on a search for his true identity while also
attempting to balance out any wrong his simulations have caused by helping
people who are as powerless as he once was. |
